Maths : 

  Homework sessions will be set on TTRockstars. Initially, this will be 15mins on Garage each week. Garage helps them to learn the tables they are not yet confident with. Once the 15 minutes on Garage is complete, children can play any of the games for additional practice, including 'Jamming' to practise specific tables without the timer; 'Studio' to increase your speed and Rock Status; and 'Soundcheck' to prepare for the summer term times tables test.
